That sounds awesome! Check it out!! Let me know how it goes! I showed my daycare moms all the bracelets and earrings I made and they think I should sell them!

Maybe tomorrow. I just don't feel like it today (I get in moods).

I did go to a craft show once at a church and sold some stuff. But that day doesn't bring back very good memories. It was the morning that the space shuttle exploded over Texas, so everyone was kind of dazed. Also I had the flu.

Yes, that was a very sad day. Bad memories indeed.

OK ladies, I am going to bore you with lots of pix of the jewelry I made so far. I am pretty happy with it all. The straight green bracelet is the only thing I didn't make. It is the one I got from Serenety Crystals that I used as a sample. Yes, I have very tiny wrists. Here you go!















Sadly, I ran out of Fushcia beads and couldn't make the matching earrings. I will need to hit Hobby Lobby when I have some time and get some more. I doubt I will get much time this week.

BTW, the light green set that is between the red set and fushcia bracelet is made completely from an old necklace of my mom's that I used to play dress up with when I was really little. Actually I used several beads from her old stuff in many of the peices. Makes them extra special.

Dang, those are so pretty FC! I am so impressed with how quickly you caught on to making such great stuff!

Very cool you were able to use some of the beads from your Mom's collection too!

Wow F/C! It would have taken me many months to do all that. You are a natural! They look beautiful.

Thanks ladies!! They really are so pretty in person because they are all Swarovski Crystals which have such nice sparkle. I must admit I am really proud of myself. When things settle down with my dad I think I will try making a double strand bracelet and see how that goes.

Wow! Pretty suff!

Very nice F/C!!!

I made some new pieces over the weekend!




Matching ankle bracelet. The first one I ever made!



Making some for Xmas presents. Trying some designs out.



Matching ankle bracelet.

FC those are gorgeous! You inspired me. You know I compete in sheep dog trials , Well anyway the dogs are commanded by whistles. A friend of mine made me a gorgeous lanyard for my whistle. My dog jumped on my lap and caught my laynrad and the beads scattered everywhere. I was sad. But I thought about you making jewelry so I went and bought the beads and stuff. So I made two pretty lanyards and two bracelets! It is fun. I made one pink and white lanyrad in honor of my dog Halle because she is a princess. Are the earrings hard?

Very cool Aerwin! I am so glad I inspired you!! I bet your work is beautiful!! Yes, it IS fun and really easy. I can do an earring and bracelet set in about 30 mins. Sometimes less. The earrings are easy!

First, pick out the earring hooks you like best. Take one of the straight pin looking wires. Add your beads. Trim off excess leaving about 1/4 inch. Take your curling wire tool and make a loop almost all the way around. Put your loop thru the circle on the bottom of your earring hook. Tightly close the loop you made. I have made about 25 pair of earrings so far.

I love doing this so much that I get frustrated when I am out of beads and can't make anymore stuff!! I am hitting Hobby Lobby tomorrow for more beads and earring hooks.

I am going to try to make a multi- strand bracelet soon. I have been so busy with the daycare and doing things for my folks, that I have not had the chance to tackle that.

Ok cool Thanks. I will try the earrings. I also want to try to make a clear lucite bracelet. I saw that On RR yesterday , I think. It was really pretty.

Stuff I made today! Bracelets, anklets and earrings!





I really love this anklet!! It sparkles like crazy in the sun and under lights!

Oh those are so pretty! I got some more beads yesterday. So I am going to make some more stuff this week.
